Jeep Liberty CRD Diesel Review

Brought to you by KCYukon search it! Like it and subscribe thanks! - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
2005, 126,000 miles myself. Completely stock. No major issues aside from replacing the oil pan recently. You might find it interesting to know that the engine DID actually originate from a small farm tractor. Wonderful little vehicle! I've never had mine not start even after sitting out for a week in -28 weather. It certainly didn't sound nice but she started. (I was in northern michigan in a cabin w/ no outdoor plug for a week - it's normally garaged and plugged in in that weather)
I heard that as well it was a tractor company in Italy I believe it was....
the 4 low is a beast set up. Use it a lot where I live, when the weather is bad
Where you live 4 lo would be extreme traveling!!
Fun little jeep! :)
Thank you for the detailed info. My 2012 Wrangler Automatic with new 3.6L actually gave me 19~21MPG stock, but those wimpy 31in stock tires just didnt do the Jeep any justice. I didnt realize these 34 mud rovers would rob that much MPG's.
I do enjoy remote camping sites and at very least hope the new 4x4 can use 30~31in Mud Tires that are 8in~9in wide. Like SuperSwampers and hopefully get low 30's MPG. I drive slow in streets and never over 60MPH on freeway.
My daily driver is a 1982 VW Rabbit Diesel and it does 52.5mpg as of now which is why I am falling in love with diesel power in general.
best,
bigC
No problem I hope it helps you out... I plan to do another video on how to do an oil change on this jeep and what type of oil I use for my jeep... Of course subscriptions are always appreciated... Thanks and keep on Jeeping!!!
Wish I had known about and could've found a CRD Liberty when I was looking for a vehicle lol. I got a 3.7 6 speed manual, definitely has been nice so far.
3.7 didn't have that much power and the fuel mileage was not to go I had a dodge dakota with 3.7 with a 6spd standard I got rid of it pretty quick.. Nice truck just not what i wanted... (2wd was blah)
That is a nice zippy Jeep. I am considering one as a second car, because my suburban is hard to park in our downtown, but such a jeep in a good condition is hard to find in my country. Most people drive them like maniacs here and beat the heck out of them. Take a good care of yours, it is an old-school stuff and it will not fall apart as many modern crossovers. I love the color by the way! Very rare :) Racing Green nearly :)))
It was an awesome jeep but I ended up selling it and moving to a Jeep GC dieasel much more what I wanted.... in the end I still have the Grand cherokee with over 300,000 kms on it....
5:13 The moment we've all been waiting for...
Thanks! ;)
I have 2004 Limited here in the US. Wish I had the diesel. They are really hard to find here. Same issue with front window regulators going bad. Transmission was replaced by previous owner. Other than that runs and drives great!
Awesome dude thanks for watching!!!
Window regulators go bad because of the stress related to allowing the regulator to run the glass all the way up before it shuts off. All parts are under stress at this point. Either stop the motor before it's as far up as it can go, or allow the motor to shut off and then bump the window glass down 1mm / a 16th of an inch. This relieves the pressure on the mechanical parts. You won't hear wind noise nor will water come in...
I am the owner of a 2006 Jeep Liberty CRD. The car was great (powerfull with low gas mileage and no repair bills to speak of) . Untill it reached 135.000 miles. At that time I drove approx 10 miles very fast through a flood area (dealing with an emergency). After that I began to have strange little defects first (ABS and brakes changes in efficiency).
Later, the car stopped out of the blue and would not restart: crank-but-no-start. We live in Baja Sur (Mexico). I was advised to buy a new computer mother-board for the car. With that, the car ran again -- great. The car felt like a new engine: very powerful.
I drove it two weeks without any problems. Then, two weeks ago I suddenly found the car to be real sluggish. I drove it for approx 20 mls, stopped and then started again -- the sluggishness had gone. The car had sometimes a diesel fuel smell -- sometimes not.
Curious about the car's behavior I took it to a great freeway (little traffic --big hills) and drove it fast (90 mph). Then, suddenly the engine stalled with what felt like a loud bang. I rolled on the shoulder, stopped. Cranked the engine again -- and, drove off like nothing had happened. This phenomena keeps repeating itself daily. I took it to a local repair shop and they did a diagnosis scan. The mechanic comment was: the engine runs great. no problems found in the scan --except an issue might be: the fuel-heater and a fuel-temperature-sensor, (we live in a hot climate).
Question: is there someone that can advise me what to do next? Parts for the CRD are not sold in Mexico. No one has experience working on CRD Jeeps here.
Every advice is very welcome.

sensors are notoriously bad on liberty's. it's a Chrysler.
Sorry for the delay I would fallow Justin's comment it could be a bad sensor... if it is it should show on a ECU computer scan as something... Also www.greendieselengineering.com/Welcome.action go to the forums and see if anyone has some ideas as well, maybe make a new post just like this! Or a possilbe ECU tune might fix eliminating unneeded sensors etc. Good luck!
I just got one, 2005 1 owner 91k. First tank with a performance additive I got 28 going from Denver to Price. Super impressed with how its performed. Only bummer is that the rear ABS sensor might've gone out? I hope its that and not the wires cause I'm about to drive the ALCAN. I feel like for slow driving getting the 30s is possible. But everyone watches Nascar in Utah so we'll see. Think the GDE eco chip would fry the torque converter? I'd love to get better mileage now that I'm rolling with a rocketbox
There is ECO tune which is designed to work with the stock torque converter. This is what I opted for as the others tunes made a huge difference in torque&hp but then you have to start beefing things up which is not what I wanted. What I noticed after the tune was it had more of grunt noise little louder but not.much, I gained about another 20 kms to 30 kms per tank of diesel... which is what 15 miles more... That was just every day driving in town and a little hwy long hwy drives might be much better, the biggest thing I wanted was durability with the tune. With no tune the engine will attempt to burn it's own soot and what happens is it gets into your oil. Causes your oil to break down faster over time. The eco tune turns that feature off was my understanding when I talked with him. I would also recommend a lower profile eco tire. That will give about 1 mpg more. Oh also I did notice a slight change in power and it seemed to run better as well... Thanks for watching my videos!!!
same engine as the London black cabs a real workhorse
Very cool any idea how far some of those black cabs go?? Thanks for the comment.
It is a German designed Italian engine. Rated towing is 5000 pounds (in Europe they rated them @ 7000). I have a 2006 and have tweeked for maximum MPG, I am actually getting 31-32 freeway and 24-25 around town. My overhead computer shows 4mpg more than I am actually getting. (my guess is he is going by his overhead console and not the calculated MPG). Jeep did some last minute cost cuttings on these jeeps, the elimination of the in-tank fuel pump is one of the first fixes I recommend. I got one from a wrecker from a 2003 Dodge diesel that fit right in. the wiring was already there since it was designed to have one in the first place. Many h ave experienced turbo failure, mainly due to the smog crap that re-circulates the breather oil. A provent system fixed that. The window regulators he mentioned are cheap plastic and will eventually break on ALL jeep liberties. metal replacements can be found on EBAY for about $20 each, they are a bit of a pain to replace, but when the dealers want over $200 to replace them with the cheap plastic, this is a better way to go.
These are very powerful little jeeps, when you step on the pedal you get instant acceleration, much more than you would expect. They look a bit wimpy for my taste, so I put a ARB front bumper on mine to "man it up" and welded on brackets to tow it behind my motor-home. I have had mine a few years and have about 68k miles on it.
The ride is stiff, long trips are not nearly as relaxing as a Lexus. Finding parts can be a challenge and I am not looking forward to changing the timing belt! The Thermostat is inside a cast housing and is over $100 for the part. It is a great car, but I would not recommend it to anyone without some mechanical knowledge and willing to make the changes it requires to bring it to its full potential.
Good comments thanks!
Excellent Info
In the uk. 2.8 crd was always on sale from 2002 onwards
Hey Chris Yea not sure why but over in North America they had a lot of restrictions on these engines they came.out in only 2005-2006
Diesel KJ's have been available since launch in my country.
Are you in Europe I believe they have had this engine over there for quite some time now.....
Kc Yukon
Yes in the UK, the launch was the 4 pot 2.5TD Vm Motori Diesel, later models were given the 2.8 CRD Diesel which again is a 4 cylinder which was also put in the Wrangler Unlimited.
The line up was also complimented with a 2.4 Petrol/Gasoline and the 3.7 V6
BTW Nice KJ
So you guys have lots of experience with these engines, we seem to get so many restrictions with diesels I think half of them can't make it over due to emissions.... thanks for the info Peter
Love ours!! She has 260k miles and still going
That solid they say there a million mile motor :)
+Jason Zanesi They are tough for sure, Jeeps are mean't to last! Thanks for the comment
Good to hear how tough it is at 80 mph that would have been one heck of an impact... Glad you guys are okay! Take care
Heather Robbins do you still have your jeep what's the miles on it now??
I miss my 2.8L CRD. It went to crap at 120,200 miles and I dumped over $3k into it only to still not fix it. Also went through two turbos in that 120,200 miles which wasn't cheap. I am hoping to fix the 2.8L eventually but in the mean time I swapped in a 3.7L V6. Much cheaper to maintain but I do miss the torque and fuel mileage of the diesel. Hoping that one day I can swap in an Isuzu 4BD1T.
At about 100k miles they usually lock because of the low oil going to the cam and lifter so the lifter would get worn down by the cam and the cam would get eaten up as well, I owned one and that was the problem so i changed the cam and lifters and it was good as new
JeepCollector91 what happened to it
I ended up selling it, still they are really nice cars
They usually die at 100K when the owner doesn't change the timing belt, and the pistons slap the shit out of all the valves/rockers.
+t4thfavor1212 incorrect but that's alright haha
Looking to swap one of these in my 3.7 L liberty
Best motor for this type of jeep it will turn it into a beast with all that low end torque!!! You should do a youtube video on the swap that would be rare thing I bet!!! :) cheers
nice...can you tell me were to get a wheel cover like that for the spare?
Yea for sure just search on ebay for Jeep Cover and you should find lots of options!
No search for this "Jeep rear wheel cover" i got over 5000 hits on that.
One I saw the seat were beat, at 177 000 km, at sale for 3,200$.
Price is right!
I have a 2012 Wrangler with 34in tires and tired of the 16MPG. I been contemplating trading in for a 2005 CRD Liberty but I hear these get 18~26MPG at best. How are you getting over 30MPG?
I hear yea man I had a dakota 3.7 with 6 spd manual and pulling my snowmobiles sucked.. Against a hard wind I would get like 12 to 13 MPG... So I said screw it I'm getting a diesel. But to your question when I purchased the jeep about 3 years ago we took a trip down to Minnesota... I put on 670 kms / 420 miles and I still had over half a tank of diesel. At that point it took approximate about 35 Liters of diesel. If I drove back on that one tank I bet I could have made it all the way back home. When you do the calculations on it's around 35/40 MPG (canadian) Since then I have done the green eco tune and I put some eco tires on my jeep... I have found almost no difference with both, the tune helps keep the soot out of the motor and I saw maybe another 10 to 20 miles increase on my jeep as far as range goes. The ECO tires I found did nothing really.... Anyways when I did do that trip down to the states I drove it 60 MPH, I ran it in over drive and drove back hwy's so I wouldn't hold anyone up. The RPM at hwy speeds is almost at idle like 1650 RPM.
I am getting 31.8 with mine and 29 in the country 28 ish towing a trailer with load. I have Aftermarket TC, GDE Hot tune, straight pipe what a nice little jeep. 200hp and 400ftlbs or torque.
good dog!
Awesome dog RIP Ginger!
I'm selling my 06 Liberty diesel, 113000km but I'd love to see it pimped out like this one!
Where are you and how much you selling for?
I sold for 12 G many moons ago... Great jeep though..
You said highway millage 35-40 MPG......... I have a heavily modified Liberty CRD and sometime I can get 35mpg. It was doing 26 when stock
Remember that's CDN Imperial MPG not US in case your USA side!
Great vid but my CRD only gets 29.0 mpg on highway highest I've seen
Can I ask how you modified be yours?
It's too bad the CRD was only sold in the USA for a couple years and not any longer than that. How about taking it for a spin around town?
Didn't see your comment until now for some reason yes I got video of me romping through the bush if you want to check it out!!!!
Kc Yukon I'll check it out. Thanks. How far back is this video?
Search for Having fun in the jeep!!! You'll find it....... cheers
Wait a minute do this instead search for -----------> Having fun in the jeep!!! KC Yukon
i have at 2006 CRD....I am looking forward to the day I sell it...this is the most maint intensive and least reliable vehicle I have ever owned. ALWAYS an issue...LIMP Mode for turbo boost, rear window latch, shift colomn wont release ignition key, MAP sensor is $110, MAF sensor is $95, plan on changing the egr valve every 2-3yrs, drivers side window will get stuck 1/2 way open.... and the list goes on and on... Chrysler really screwed the American public and abandoned this after only 2 years....EVERYTHING is a dealer only replacement item.... I remember feeling as happy and giddy as you do right now when I first bought mine....just wait another year or two and you will hate it as much as every other crd liberty owner after a2-3 years...
Crappy I never had any issues with mine but I no longer have it I sold it about 3 months ago.
I have an 05 Had the TC re-done 500$ chrysler paid for the rest. GDE hot tune with straight pipe. 31.8 MPG towes great. Does not start the best when temps are in the negatives.
Loved mine so much I bought a second one. They are maintenance whores though. The EGR is the first thing I disable to prevent future problems. I think I love them because maintenance is like solving a complex puzzle, I find it therapeutic when I am stressed to wrench on my KJ's.
@@jesse.e.martin I'd owned a gas engine 02 I ordered just the way I wanted it from Jeep and for 17 years. The only thing we've had to deal with twice is the window rollers gave out on a couple windows to where we had to temporarily tape the window up to keep it shut. $400 fix x 2 over 17 years ain't bad!
Used it many times on trails all over. Had it on the same trails we used my FJ40s and other trucks all four wheelers. The Jeep doesn't do as well in deep mud or snow but on trails and so long as the body isn't dragging it's impressive and a great little overlander package in my opinion.
7k-8k ponds towing?? don't think those are the numbers. Good review though!
Yea looking at it more I think it's rated for 5000 pounds... I thought I read that it was higher but maybe that was the European model...
Yeah I had one for a few years......rated for 5000lb max towing but it would easily haul more.
I have this kind of jeep. where did you buy the aftermarket bumper and what model? Thank you
Read this www.jeepforum.com/forum/f292/mtnluvrs-declassified-off-road-bumpers-rock-sliders-1137010/
why not a 4 cylinder Cummins ?
It was a Daimler Jeep when I bought mine and it is a "Detroit" diesel that is the 2.8 liter they used in USA sold units. I know nothing about German design or European who but the company that makes the diesel in that Jeep is in America. I had hoped when they were Daimler that it would be a Mercedes diesel! Then you would have something!! But oh no!! Not Jeep. I do own a 3.7 gasoline version but had it been the Mercedes I'd have opted on a diesel even then but we've owned since 02. when I took delivery of it new. Its a Limited with every option made special for me just the way I wanted it and we love it. I would buy another limited just like it with the diesel if I found one for the right deal.
Because the 4bt is heavy, Most of all emissions. I don't think it's ever come as a highway engine in anything
@@troytaylor9228 05 -06 were design and made by VM Motori in Italy.
You are correct e.g smith... I don't know how I missed this....
can you still get the disels
Unfortunately no you can not... but the next best thing is the Grand Cherokee Diesel and yes you can get them in diesel still.
was this a mercedes engine
Its a German Designed Italian engine... My understanding it was an Italian company which was either farmed out by Detroit diesel or it was some kind of sub company. The company was called VM Motorola S.P.a
Ur max tow is 5000 that's it crd dont matter I've got it's new brother that's rated for 7,700
Right on appreciate your freedback!!! Cheers and Merry Christmas!
did anybody notice he didnt open the garage door before starting it?Thats a major no no unless you going for a self kill
lol you have to have it running for quite some time before you die of carbon monoxide poisoning...
👍
Thanks!
@@KcYukon Only Diesel, brother!
@@user-cf3ii1sc4p Ohhhh yea!!! ;)
You still driving it?
No I sold this Jeep a while back but a great vehicle I would recommend it to this day it never gave me a kick of problems.. thanks for watching.
No I sold my liberty years ago.. I now drive a Jeep Grand Cherokee 3.0L diesel (2008) its awesome I would recommend it!
Common Rail Diesel
Powerhouse Performance PHP Yes I understand its already mentioned a few times now... ;)
Powerhouse Performance PHP In fact I just put a blurb up on there to confirm I stated it wrong... Thanks for watching.

The dog probably wants to go outside because she doesn't want to die from exhaust from not having the garage door open
She was an awesome dog golden retreivers last 10-12 years mine died over Christmas at 13 1/2 years old what an awesome dog!! Thanks for the positive comment...
Kc Yukon for sure! Keep em alive any way you can 🤠
Jonathan Luthren we tried her hips finally gave out she couldn't go to washroom without caring her outside :( always hard losing a pet!
I was thinking the same thing.
I think his mileage was Km/gal not miles. I have a 2005 CRD and average about 21-22 mpg combined; this is after a computer upgrade was done early in its life. Originally I heard they got in excess of 31 mpg but were tearing up transmissions; too much torque at lower gearing.
Yes that is correct! I also had the Eco Green flash on my ECU as well.
My coworker always buys Jeeps and complains about the maintenance costs. Duh, buy a freaking Toyota then!
Yea Debbie downers!!! I call them lol I find my jeep is find with maintenance I mean I just did ball joints but man over 340,000 kms... its expected.....
I have an '06 Jeep Liberty Limited Turbo Diesel with perfect leather interior; it is a Florida car that has never seen snow, or even bad roads-those two things will absolutely DESTROY a jeep-or any car, really, north of the Mason-Dixon Line. Drives and handles like it was just driven off the assembly line, and there is not a SPOT of rust on it anywhere! People are constantly leaving me notes on it with their ph. nos. asking if I'd consider selling it!! (PS: to the guy who did this atrocious "review video"-DON'T QUIT YOUR DAY JOB!)
Little harsh but glad you still you got yours! Great vehicle I still work full time. Thanks!
OPEN THE DOOR!
I JUST DID Thanks your a life saver!!!!
no way it tows that much...
+Matt Close What you can tow and what you should tow are not the same thing. I saw a chevy s 10 v6 towing a 65 ft mobile home! Granted it was flat land with no hills or that would have got interesting fast!
My Grandpa had a little 69 bronco and we towed a 24ft trailer way overloaded with dirt bikes, water, gas, food, ice, you name it! and we had to traverse the Cajon pass into the Mojave every time! I drove that bronco a few years ago and I thought it had oily brakes and I was towing nothing, it was just the drum brakes! my Grandpa was crazy to do what he did and we never knew it lol.
+Matt Close My 2004 Liberty with the gas v6 and auto with factory tow package tows 5,000 lbs.
The CRD's max towing capacity is 7400lbs It's no joke. Same transmission as the hemi trucks, and it weighs nearly 5000lbs.
USA rating is 5,000. What you can tow is different then what the rating is. You could tow a massive amount of weight if there was no tongue weight and you had the gearing maxed out.
If your trailer is setup properly, and you have trailer brakes, you can safely tow 5K with this, In Europe, and Canada the max is 7400Lbs it's literally the same as the US spec.
"Clear rail diesel" lol wat
Thanks 10th reminder on it lol

yep I know this is just for fun channel :) I make mistakes thanks for watching!!!!
For those who know what I'm talking about, these things are a white elephant
Can you explain that more so people know what your talking about???
@@KcYukon a white elephant is a term the military uses when referring to something that constantly needs maintenance. In other words, these diesel engines break down a lot. So expect to dump a lot of money in it...
Somebody needs to read his owners manual. Clear rail diesel, part time is off road only ??? Full time means the transfer case is locked, not clutched like in part time 4wd. Part time is intended for the road...
That's actually the opposite part time means it's locked in 4wd and you cannot use this on the road. Full time means you can use it all the time hence the term "full time".
Ahahahahaha, uh no. "Full-time" means just that: it is 4x4 full time in that mode and not to be left there for extended hard surface travel. Look it up.
Seems like were all confused ;)
Its atualy common rail diesel not clear
Road Toad incorrect. Full time full wheel is for regular driving when the weather may have slippery sections . Totally fine to use on road.
Part time is just that. Use it only part time, when you are on a slippery surface- mud, sand deep snow. It is not meant to be driving in part time all the time on roads.. educate yourself
Jeep tech here
clear rail diesels for the win! 35-40mpg? haha...
Like I said i got that fuel mileage driving it like grampa does... Real world is pedal to medal :)
And downhill! the overhead display lies too.
I just bought one in Florida, and hand calculated 29mpg at 85mph from FL to MI 1062 miles.
that sounds appropriate
t4thfavor1212 remember I'm in Canada so calculate it to imperial gallon 34.8 MPg
Your not getting 35-40. Pulling is 5000lbs. I have one and have run all the tunes.
+Craftsman US MPG it would be lower yes more around 28 to 32 MPG... I did get almost 1000 kms to a tanke of diesel back in the day. That would be almost 600 miles. thanks for the comment!
+Kc Yukon Oh I gotcha..
Yea up here it's all metric so sometimes I forget when I calculate I should quote both conversions US and CDN.... Cheers thanks for the comment it's still a amazing jeep I would take that diesel over the 3.7 gas any day!!
+Craftsman Thanks!
35-40 mpg highway? Common man...
please explain how you get a 50-100% increase in fuel economy
I get 35-37 mpg at 65-80 MPH on the highway easy in the summer in mine. (calc'd via the overhead computer) Drop a couple mpg's in anything below 40F. Might not be dead balls accurate cozz it's calculated by the computer. Who knows...still around 500 miles per tank is great mileage for a 5500lb vehicle that's about as aerodynamic as a brick.
I'm impressed with that motor it's got lots of jam and pretty decent on fuel!
*commonraildiesel
Yea thanks for catching that!
this is a cummins motor I'm sure of it
nope do some research.
Zachery Acord oh I think it's a duramax
Zachery Acord same 2.8 that's in the Colorado
My understanding it was an Italian company which was either farmed out by Detroit diesel or it was some kind of sub company. The company was called VM Motorola S.P.a
Kc Yukon oh so we made better motors than they did but yet they put the same motors in our cars because I hear they aren't the best of diesels
Great Jeep! Just got a 2002 model and loving it! Check it out here: th-cam.com/video/kRle_Ep70n0/w-d-xo.html
Yea you will be impressed thanks for watching!!! :)
I own two and I call huge BS on the fuel economy. I get great fuel economy, so don't get me wrong but 40 mpg?! In the words of sleepy Joe, "Come on Man!" and they can not or should not pull 8k pounds! The tow hitch is rated for 5k which is good and maybe the vehicle could tow a little more but the Liberty only weighs just over 4100 pounds and as a guy who tows a lot, I can tell you 8k pounds towing s a terrible idea for this thing. I have gotten as high as 31.4 mph all highway and as low as 22 while mix with heavy off roading I average about 26ish, which is great. These are amazing vehicles. DO NOT GET THE 3.7L v6 gas! It's the Diesel only that is the good one. P.S. most people guess on their fuel economy and don't actually get what they say. I find that very frustrating.
So if you live in the USA then this is CDN 40 MPG, there is s difference.... If we convert this the numbers will make more sense to you.... 33.5 US MPG converted to Imperial MPG is 40.23 ... This is where you getting things probably mixed up. Imperial MPG is CDN and US MPG are two different things... On the towing I would agree with you I did this video long time ago and with the narrow stance on these vehicles 8000 would be pushing it but the engine can pull it the body is not wide enough.... I agree on the 3.7 as well not great on fuel, not good on power I felt not a well designed engine. Cheers
@@KcYukon How could I have lived 43 years on this planet and not know that? Wow! We really do learn sonething new every day. Thank you!
@@generalcaeser9176 all good buddy I'm 45 and still learning :)
LMFAO ....25 MPG average had one since 2007. 18 MPG towing a popup camper at 2500 pounds. Great vehicle no doubt but that fuel mileage talk is insane!
Remember I'm talking CDN Gallons... So that would Imperial be numbers.... US Gallons would be lower for sure.
This guy doesn't really seem to know what he's talking about "if you think about it"
I'm no professional just my thoughts on the vehicle when I owned it.
I found one of these for sale in my area, 05 CRD with 156xxx miles. It's a one owner vehicle, got the Carfax. Is it a good buy? How reliable has yours been?
www.carfax.com/VehicleHistory/p/Report.cfx?partner=DCS_0&vin=1J4GL58515W664079
I don't have the jeep anymore but it was a great jeep I had it 3 years and during that time I fixed my window came down it needed a plastic piece I did it myself and have a video on it. The rest was maintenance tires oil changes, nothing serious for me. I did get the time belt changed at 160,000 kms and the dealership said it was due for a timing belt,. You might want to look into that. It cost me about $800
Apparently the car fax said in December 2013 the maintenance inspection was completed and the timing belt, drive belts, air filter, and water pump were all replaced and the Antifreeze/coolant was flushed/changed. Good deal for $8,850? It's my first diesel so I'm clueless lol.
19aas95 Yea that's not bad if its in mint shape your good to go, I assume your talking US dollars of course. It sounds like everything has been kept up those diesels are suppose to go a million miles or so they say.... So keep in mind a few things this little diesel has lots of power and torque but it comes with a tractor sound. I liked it to be honest, but I also picked up a Grand Cherokee diesel which even had more power with its V6 turbo and just as good on fuel. I could pull more with the GC because of the wheel base being longer but of course you get a bigger price tag with the GC. That was my main reason for selling the jeep liberty I didn't need to full size diesels. I do recall on very very cold days the cab was luke warm at best. -10 C its fine but you get to my -35 to -45 up here in Canada and it would start be mildy warm in the cab even when engine would be at full temperature. I asked the Dodge dealer why this was they said in winter the engine is so efficient it won't run hotter. I guess I could have looked at a hotter thermostat or something but it was bad enough to be make me do it. Other then that it was a good jeep great off roader for the casual guy.
